I love how they now specify not to use FedEx boxes for the outer container. When I got certified, I had my package approved as an inner, insulated flat box, inside of the largest FedEx box. It worked really great, and I could fit about 6 deli cups inside, or even add a book if ordered together. And no dimensional weight! And I only had to buy one box, but got the use of 2! Of course, FedEx finally figured out that they were losing all of that dimensional weight they could get by forcing us to use the more typical boxes. I got to do it for a year or two before they caught on, and I had to increase my shipping rates to compensate. It was nice while it lasted, though!
